Allow it on your firewall
in some proxy servers….either there is no support for torrent download… or the port is blocked….
you have to check the settings of the proxy server itself

1.Locate a proxy server address. Tech Faq and Proxy Expo have an extensive list of free proxy servers. Open “Notepad,” and then copy and paste two or three for later reference.

2.2
Start the uTorrent application. Click the “Options” tab. Select “Preferences,” and then the “Connection” tab on the left.

3.3
Choose the type of proxy you copied in step 1. These include, but are not limited to, “HTTP” or “SOCKS4.” Insert the proxy address in the “Proxy” box. Change the “Port” option if necessary. Click “Authentication” if a “User” and “Password” are required. Select the “Resolve Hostnames” and “Use Proxy for Connections” boxes. All information required will display with the proxy address.

4.4
Click “Apply.” Then “OK.” Close uTorrent with the “X” button. Then restart uTorrent.

I’m afraid I don’t have an answer to your question and as you see, your question has been up here for a week and no one responded. I thus recommend that you ask a new question, which will be published on the front page of Answers and will then receive a lot more attention and some replies for sure!
